Notable PRs (closed without merge)

• #66300 — Restore daily AIC scan cache for required workflows
• #66132 — Prevent safe-output exposure through post-step guidance
• #66122 — Refresh available container image versions and pins
• #66121 — Harden installer downloads and security ownership paths

All four had substantive PR bodies (not placeholder/WIP closures).

Key Insights

• Historical trend data had a 41-day gap (last entry 2026-08-26); cold-start rebuilt 2026-10-04 to 2026-10-06 for this report, so the 3-day comparison above does not reflect the missing weeks in between.
• agent_prs_merged (event-scoped) counts PRs merged in the window regardless of creation date, so it can differ from the creation-cohort merge count — both were cross-checked against the all-author merged_prs baseline (19/49 on 10-06) and found consistent.
